Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records Theme Preview version 1.4 as active, updated 10y ago and tested up to WordPress 4.4.
Overview
About this plugin
By default, the only way to see how a new theme looks on your site is to
activate it, making it visible to everyone who visits. With this plugin, it
is possible to view how a new theme looks without activating it.
TODO
Possible future enhancements:
Add an options screen.
Allow choice of theme to preview from a known list of installed themes.
Provide persistent previews by setting a cookie.
Restrict preview ability by user Roles/Capabilities.
Child-theme friendliness.
Notes
May not work properly with child themes. This is because it will not be able
to inherit from the parent theme as it normally would.
